Begin by examining the content of the Request.InputSt ream. Use a regular
StreamReader and dump it to a string variable to see if you get *nothing
but* a valid XML document.
My guess, which is also suggested by your exception, is that you'll get
some header info from the stream *before* your actual XML.

Best regards,
Magnus
